Verizon Starts Prepping Site for the HTC Rezound and Tomorrow’s Announcement

Ahead of tomorrow’s HTC Rezound announcement in NYC, Verizon has started to prepare the landing page for the device. If you cruise over to verizonwireless.com/rezound, you will find yourself on a blank page that has meta data built into it which references the existence of this Beats-powered 4G LTE beauty. Expected to be priced around $299 on contract, the Rezound will be one of the first phones on the planet with an HD screen. It will also sport a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, HTC Sense 3.5, and come with a set of Beats by Dre ear buds and a built-in improved audio experience. You can see how it compares to the Galaxy Nexus and DROID RAZR at this snazzy comparison chart we threw together.

Our goal is to have a live blog of the event around 3PM Eastern (12PM Pacific), so be sure to tune in tomorrow.

Cannot wait for this phone. I rather have this over the phone that looks like the edges got chipped off (Razr) and has a huge camera hump, been there done that with the droid X. The Nexus w/o a SD slot seems to iPhonish and if I really wanted to be stuck with only ‘X’ amount of memory I my as well get an iPhone. It looks good but no SD slot really has me bugging.

No big deal here. We all know this is coming out soon. Conscientious consumers will wait to compare all 3 next to each other. Others will get one, spend $35 to trade it for another, and then another $35 to change it again. Me, I may look at it to get an idea of how good the SGN will be.

It looks nice but I really wish HTC would change it up in the design area. They all look so similar with different designs in the material on the back. I do like the red accents though.

lol that is what i tell my friend. They are the new apple. They have had the same design since the htc evo came out.

This might be my next phone. I don’t need the pure google experience, but I want a removable battery and sd card. Plus the red accents seem kinda cool.

Off topic, thinking of buying a duracell instant charge as a backup. Fairly cheap and can give me that little bit extra I need. Any reason I shouldn’t? Have a Droid X right now.

The GNex has a removable battery… and comes with 32GB memory…

True, but he said he wanted an SD card

The only potential issue I see with this phone is battery life. I like HTC a lot but they need to use bigger batteries. I would personally wait for any of these new 4g phones to be in use for a while before I would buy one. Rezound and Razr look like the 2 best to me.

Smoke dope much bro?

Yep, best thing would be to play with them all at once and pick. I for one have lost my patience and am in need of a replacement, so I jumped the gun.

Save yourself the hassle. Get the GNex and be done with it. Nothing to look at with the rest of the devices.

Sure there isn’t…

The nexus is plastic.

The GNex comes in 16Gig or 32Gig. With as many cloud services Google provides, how much space do you need? And it has a removable battery.

It would be really cool if every phone ever was released before the Galaxy Nexus.

If you look at the code commented out on the page, it’s just an email sign up. In chrome you can even take out the comments. looks like the image attached.

How in the world can they call the Rezound sleek? It’s petty much a brick just like my Thunderbolt.

Yeah and the thing is Google doesn’t care what Verizon does with the public release because Google announced the phone, its releasing somewhere soon (internationally) and then Google employees can get their hands on a GN at any time because they work for the friggin’ company. So yeah google doesnt care either…

Very sad.

I’m tellin ya Verizon is delaying it so they can work out some bugs with the VCAST apps they preloaded……

They may delay the nexus like they did with the bionic. I will see a lot of people hating on the plastic thing lol.

And delay it gorilla glass, and better front and rear camera, and better screen and thinner LTE version, and better processor, and better phone all together!

The nexus is good for devs that’s it.

Umm… just saying, the GN is gonna be garbage..The absolute, end all, only thing it has going for it is the fact that it will be shipped with ICS, and get adequate updates. I’m gonna stick to my quality built HTC devices that I’ve never had a problem with since the WinMo days, and you can stick to your fancy android running, Samsung Instinct. What quality… noob.

I highly doubt that the Nexus will be garbage.

Anonymous

no one questioned HTC’s build quality. I have a thunderbolt for your information. It’s just that they are built like a frigging tank and the battery sucks.

I don’t understand how every phone comes out on time except the one we all want. First the Bionic, now the Nexus…

Why do you hate the Thunderbolt?

Anonymous

That too!

Verizon doesn’t typically throw pages up for devices too far in advance. There are always exceptions, like the RAZR. If that page goes live tomorrow after the announcement, that either means the device is coming very soon, or maybe they will do a preorder?

Amazing

It is all about the razor 🙂

Meh.

Motorola sucks and the Bionic was a flop..oh …sorry wrong thread…I meant to say When is the Galaxy Nexus coming? Oh wait…wrong thread again…ummmm…

Motorola hasn’t really had a hit since the OG Droid. The rest were Blur phones. They really weren’t Android. Same with the upcoming RAZR. It’s a Blur phone.

Anonymous

Are you high? They havn’t had a “hit”? So to you a “hit” isn’t a successful phone that sells MILLIONS or anything….no it’s plain ***UGLY*** stock Android that makes a “hit”?

Hmmm, those Nexus phone must be great then. Cuz EVERYONE has one right? Ya know, it being a “hit” and all.

Wow….

The droid x and the bionic are the best Droid devices till now that we have the razor. The droid was lacking memory and size.

The bionic is a future proof device. what are you talking about? go back to Africa and educate yourself first before opening your mouth.
